Remicade and SED rate

Has anyone have their SED rate be around 49 even after 4 rounds of Remicade? I am in so much pain the doctor prescribed me pain meds, but he is hoping the next dose help with inflammation. Just tired of the pain.
 
A sedimentation rate is common blood test that is used to detect and monitor inflammation in the body. The sedimentation rate is also called the erythrocyte sedimentation rate because it is a measure of the red blood cells (erythrocytes) sedimenting in a tube over a given period of time.
